Joey Dunlop Biography
Launch
|
|
The official Biography of Joey Dunlop will be launched by
Ottakar's Book Shop at the Empress Hotel, Douglas on Friday the first of
June.
The book has been written by well-known journalist and ex TT
competitor Mac McDiarmid who grew to know Joey well over the years. The
foreword is by Bob McMillan, Boss of Honda's racing effort in the UK and
royalties from each book sold go to Joey's family.

The 188-page book contains some never before seen
pictures and is well worth the £25 price. It will serve as a lasting
tribute to the greatest Road Racer of them all.
The official launch will
be attended by both McDiarmid and McMillan who will be signing copies at each
of the two sessions. The first session is from 7:00pm till 8:00pm and the
second one from 9:00pm till 10:00pm.
Ticket's cost £3 and all the
proceeds go to Joey's family. They can be obtained from
Ottakar's Douglas Store
21-22 Strand Street, or by calling 01624
679051.
